THE NEW INDUSTRIAL SOUTH.
Charles Dudley Warner, in Harper's Maya

Charles Dudley Warner, in Harper's Maya
zine for March
When we come to the New Industri-
al South the change is marvellous, and
SO vast and various that L scarcely
know where TO begin in IA short paper
that cannot 60 IHuch into details. In
stead OF a south devoted TO agriculture
and politics, we find a south wide
awake to business, excited and even
astonished ut the development of its
OWL immense resources i'll. metals, mar
b.es, coal, timber, fertilizers, eagerly
laying lines OF communication, raj idly
opening mines. building furnaces,
boundaries. and all sorts of shops for
utilizing the native riches. 1t is like
the discovery of a new world. When
the nOrtheruer finds great fOunderies in
Virginia using only (with slight ex-
ceptious) the products of Virginia iron
and coal mines; when he finds Ala
bama and Tennessee making iron so
good and so cheap that it finds ready
market III Pennsylvania and touDderies
multiplying near the great furnaces for
supplying northern markets; when he
finds cotton mills running 10 full capa-
city on grades of cheap cottons unlvers-
ally in demand throughout the south
and southwest; when he findss small in
ld0strie3, such as ~paper-boX factories
ana wooden bucket and tub factories,
Esanding all they can make into the
north and widely over the west; when
he sees the loads of most beautiful
marbles shipped north: when he learns
that some OF the largest and most i'm
portant engines and mill machinery
were made in southern shops; when he
finds III Richmond a "pole locomo-
tive" made 10 run on logs laid end to
end, and drag ont from Michigan for
ests and southern swamps lumber hith-
erto inaccessible; when be sees worm
out highlands in Georgia and Carolina
b ar more cotton than ever before by
help of a fertilizer the base of which is
the cotton seed itself (worth more as a
fertilizer than it was before the oil was
extracted from it); when he sees a
multitude of small shops giving en-
ployment to men, women and children
~ho never had any work of that sort
to do before; and when he sees ROa-
noke iron cast in Richmond into car
IRONS, and returned to a Car factory i'll
Roanoke which last year sold three
hundred cars to the New York and
New England railroad-he begins t.
open his eyes. The south is manufacture
ing a great variety of things needed in
the house, on the farm, and in the
shops. tor home consumption, and al
ready sends to the north and west sew
eral manufactured products. With
iron, coal, timber contiguous and easily
obtained, the amount Sent out is GER
tain to increase as the labor becomes
more sklllful. The most striking indus
trial development to-day is in iron,
coal, lumber and marbles; the more
encouraging for the selfsustaining life
of the southern people is the multiple
cation Of small industries in nearly
every city | visited.

Ramanlic Marriage.

There was reconstruction episode
at Mobile, the other day, in which
some of the old AIinnesotans may feel
personal interest. Says the St.
Paul Globe 1t was wedding
occasion, and the circumstances
which led up to it were as follows /:
In the military competitive drill at
Mobile there was company from
Muscatine, ia. In order to make
these far-away Northern soldiers feel
more at home amid their Southern
surroundings, young lady gener-
ouslv rendered herself and services
as sponsor for the Muscatine COM
pany. Her name was Hattie Citherall
Hall, and she wus granddaughter of
Major George b. Citherall, one of the
most prominent citizens of Alabama.
Major Citherall will be remembered
by the older residence of Minnesota
as the register of the United States
Land Office in Otter Tail county prior
to 1860. There is a striving little town
in that county named after him.
When Major Citherall's granddaugh-
ter, Miss Hall, was married ut his
home the other day, among the gifts
to greet the brides eye was an elegant
gold lace pin, set with five large brill
iants, present from the Muscatine
Guards, as testimonial of their re-
membrance of the brave little South
ern girl WHO stood sponsor for the
Iowa company at the competitive
drill. Such incidents as this do a
thousand times more toward fostering
a spirit of nationality than all OF Fair
fields palsy business.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-08-22

THE Hon. James G.. Blaine has
every reason to exclaim, "Save me
from my friends" The Republicans
of Pennsylvania, in endorsing him for
the Presidency, have really done him
the worst turn that lay in their
power. 1t seems to be generally con-
ceded that Blaine can have the Re-
publican nomination if he wants it..
At the same time there is a quite ex-
tended belief that he would not prove
to be as strong candidate in 1888 as
in 1884. Many of the most clear
headed Republicans admit that there
are multitudes who voted for him
then, especially in New York, who
would not vote for him now, while the
Mugwump contingent are even more
imp lacable than ever. Such powerful
Republican journals as the Boston
Herald and the New York Times
would oppose Blaine tooth and toe
nail if nominated. The fate OF Henry
Clay ought to warn him against run
ming second time. The American
people are very consistent in affirming
their first judgment when given a Sec
ond whack at Presidential candidate.
